| Summary: | Cassie Claiborne is a girl who waits. At age nine, her father abandons the family. No one in her family looks for his return not her sensitive, deeply wounded mother, or her brilliant but high-strung older sister, or even her affable but realistic grandfather. Yet Cassie arises early each morning, sits on the porch rocker, and waits. As Cassie grows into a young female pool hustler, she emulates her father but slowly takes on her mother's deeper nature. The death of her mother propels Cassie through a series of events that finally frees her to come into her own. A searing, honest, and deeply moving sotry that will have listeners cheering through their tears. |
